Tomorrow is my birthday (I'll be 24...eek) and so this weekend has been full of lovely birthday celebrations and fun happenings. I haven't really taken many photos but here are a few quick shots of what I wore on Friday night when I went out with my parents and Ty for a lovely dinner at the Holland House. Which, by the way, I would really recommend to those who are visiting or live here in Nashville and haven't been. Especially if you enjoy a wonderfully mixed cocktail.
This beautiful 40's dress (which seems to never have been worn) was given me to by a darling blog reader Adrianne. It has quickly become my favorite dress and I know I'll be wearing it all the time. I mean, just look at that gorgeous print! *swoon* I about passed out when I received it in the mail. I need to get some better photos to really do it justice.

ReplyDeleteHappy early birthday! What a gorgeous dress and there's NOTHING better than receiving something so dear as a gift. I love that your makeup coordinates perfectly with the shoes and the belt, a little silent-movie style beige cast to it all. Great look! :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful gift and you look absolutely gorgeous in it! My favorite blog reader gifts are a brown beaded hat from a reader's collection and a 1940's fruit bracelet from my blogging pal, Bunny. A very happy birthday to you!! x

Happy birthday! As a longtime reader can I just say you always look so amazingly well put together. You have such awesome personal style! That dress suits and fits you to a tee and I love what you've done matching your hair colour and lipstick!
ReplyDeleteHappy birthday! You look so beautiful...gorgeous skin! Do you mind sharing your skincare routine? What foundation do you currently use the most?
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday! I just adore your dress,you look lovely :)
ReplyDeleteFirst, happy birthday sweet girl! Seems like the celebrations have already been fab! I love that dress and I agree the print is to die for. Second, I have a few favorites but my top two off my head are a V pin from my friend Joanna and a Mother's Day brooch from my friend Brittany (both vintage bloggers). I am very sentimental so I treasure the things people gift to me. Btw, enjoy 24...its a beautiful age and beautiful time in your life. <> Bunny

Such a fantastically lovely, cheerful forties frock and terrifically sweet birthday gift. I was given a vintage dress by a dear online friend a few months ago and am still a bit in awe of her thoughtfulness and generosity. Isn't it amazing when friends know you so well they can pick out vintage clothing you'll love and surprise you with it?
